About this title

Synopsis

Endorsed by Ralph Martin!

For those who love the Church... Trying to pass the faith onto loved ones is not only difficult because of horrible scandals, but also because of widespread disbelief, doubt, and often having no need for God. This short book puts the scandals in perspective and lays out a case for why it is so reasonable to believe as a Catholic based on evidence and common sense.

It greatly concerns me as a deacon, to look at the empty seats at Mass, and wonder what it's like when people die and must stand before God the Father after having neglected and forgotten his beloved son Jesus, crucified. Therefore, I have written Passing the Faith onto Loved Ones to aid our conversations with those we care about so they may come to believe there is one God; that Jesus is His only beloved son; and that, historically speaking, Jesus established one Church to nourish and guide us.

This book presents 3 reasons for believing in God and 12 more for believing in Jesus and his Church. It also deals with common challenges, such as, suffering, Biblical violence, sexual morality and women's ordination. It is my hope and prayer that this case will help people believe and be prepared to stand before God, so we may pray like Simeon, “Lord, now your servant is ready to go to you in peace.” (Luke 2:29)
